About the Item

In 1974, wherever you looked, you could see the Chrysler Building. In this image, from Williamsburg, the distinctive Art Deco spire of the Chrysler Building peeks its head out above other structures. The foreground is a double exposure of a lone car on a road. The road is from another location in New York and was pieced together to form a surrealist image. Funk's pioneering use of hyper-lighting unifies the foreground and background elements emphasising the skyline silhouette and the isolated car on an empty silver road. Fifty years after it's creation the image still holds up. The uploaded video on 1stDibs is coming up a bit off color.
